It is essential to keep cling film in the refrigerator for the following key reasons:
1. Prevents the film from becoming too sticky
When stored at room temperature, especially in warmer climates, cling film can become excessively sticky and hard to handle. Refrigeration keeps it cooler, making it easier to unroll, cut, and apply without tangling or tearing.
2. Improves cling and performance
Cooler cling film tends to adhere better to containers and food items. The slight rigidity from refrigeration allows for a tighter seal, helping to keep food fresher for longer.
3. Reduces static electricity
At room temperature, cling film can build up static, making it stick to hands or itself rather than your food container. Cold temperatures help minimize this, improving usability.
4. Enhances food safety
